The Black Raven (1943)

Black Raven (1943) je “B” film (partnerský odkaz) from Producers Releasing Corporation (PRC). George Zucco plays Amos Bradford aka the Raven, majitel Black Raven Inn. Bradford ends up hosting several unexpected guests, who are escaping a raging thunderstorm. The storm washed out all the bridges and stranded the visitors, které zahrnují pár se snaží uprchnout, její bohatý otec, kdo honil je dolů, defraudant, gangster a různé další hráči.

Bradford seems connected with several of the visitors through his mysterious past. Vetřelec se také obchází kolem areálu. Co se stane dříve, než noc přes? The film is a tight one hour. Zucco delivers a typical but extremely good performance as The Raven.
